SO i started using alien economy mod, where the killed bitters throw "alien ore" and now i have triedt to automate it but the problem i am having is i need an automatic deconstruction on certain places, where the turets kill the bitter, i tried using the recursive blueprint mod, but i have no idea, can somebody suggest how to do it?

enemy leave piece of ore on the ground ? surround you defenses with belt so dropped item will be moved, then you can put them in chest with inserter.

That doesn't work as well as you think it might, biters happily attack any belt they end up on to prevent you using it as a defence.

Unless a mod you use change that behavior, they should mostly be targeting any turret (they have priority). Some belt will be destroyed but a working factory should have plenty to replace them wth bots.

I don't know a mod to automate deconstruction though, maybe someone else do.

Recursive blueprints documentation is... lacking.

Here is how to deconstruct a 30x30 area 50 tiles northeast of the deconstruction planner.

Item Collectors
This is a very simple mod I quickly made for someone that collects items off the ground in a 50x50 area centered on the chest.

There was an old strategy where instead of walls you used blue belts pointing away from the towers, literally nothing could ever get to your towers so they changed biter behaviour. I don't know exactly how it works as I've never tried that strategy but pretty sure it's along the lines of if a biter winds up on a belt it will start attacking it regardless of other targets.

I would recommend Loot Chest which efficiently teleports artefacts to itself within a few seconds regardless of where they are dropped. Seems it does very rarely (maybe one in a thousand) miss an artefact but it might just have been from before I installed it. Note you'll need to download it and change the required version in the, I think "Info.json" file?

This is in my eyes more a suggestion. So moved from General to Suggestions.

I am sorry if this doesnt have anything to do with the topic of this post but i would appreciate if someone could give me the knowledge to use this mod proper. Whit that I mean telling me how to use the deployer with the circiut network(I know there are Informations on the mod, given by the Creator of it. but does arent sufficient)
Any help is appreciated

Which mod? There are about 10 called in this thread.
